Joe has been keeping my sails alive the past 12 years and at a very fair price! My 3 sails are each about 560 sq ft and used for 20 days sailing SF Bay each year, with many days at 32+ kts wind, and the sunbrella, leechline, clew, and other components appreciate Joe's attentions every 5-6 years! Joe is very personable, his prices fair, his sail loft on the SF peninsula near my home and boat in SouthBeach, and he has easy drop-off and pickup procedures. I'll be seeing Joe very soon, no doubt.

My canvas-repair need was small, but Joe--a really fine, talented man--was attentive; I am delighted with the outcome of my little project, and I will return for any similar needs.

I cannot begin to thank Joe for such an amazing and talented work of art! I called him with a very short timeline and asked if he could make my dad a new El Toro dinghy sail for his 70th birthday with less than two weeks to spare. Not only did Joe take on such a complicated task... he crawled into the loft to find an El Toro pattern, and he kept me in the loop with text messages and pictures throughout the entire journey. This review does not do him justice. He is extremely hard-working, and puts his heart and soul into each and every piece. I am beyond thankful that we crossed paths. My dad and I are both honored to have a piece of your art as part of a family heirloom.

They have an amazing reputation that I now have learned is well deserved after they repaired a job for me.

As everyone else says, Joe does great work, is reliable, has fair prices, and is a super nice guy. I highly recommend Leading Edge.

Joe replaced the UV cover on my Genoa and did a really nice job. Lots of attention to detail. He added a Velcro pocket that was not on the original sail. I will certainly consider them when I need a new sail.

Joe is world class. Quick turn-a-round on a kite surf repair. Appreciate his craftsmanship and the loft is inspiring to be in. Will be back!

Leading Edge repaired my genoa. Absolute best experience! Great service, very friendly, good price, fast repair. I couldn't be happier with everything about Leading Edge Sail Makers!! Very highly recommended.

I had a non-nautical project that needed work on large outdoor fabrics, so I contacted Joe at Leading Edge Sails. Through a few emails and a couple phone conversations, I found him to be very helpful brainstorming ideas and providing me some optional directions, regardless if I result using his services. He cares more about people than money, which I find an incredible attribute. I would do business with him based on his character alone, but he also had invaluable information that showed his experience. Great guy!

Took some of my Duffy boat windows to Joe for repair. He's a very nice guy, did a great job, and at an affordable price. Definitely would recommend for your boating/sailing needs!

Best possible service. No room for improvement. Old-fashioned customer service you just don't find anymore. A pleasure to work with, wouldn't consider going anywhere else for repairs or recuts.

Joe is the real deal a breed of sail maker who knows his craft and is hands on not shipping work offshore. Repair or build new to order he is your guy. Check out his loft before buying the offshore stuff.
